"The history of the Cup dates back to 1861, the resultant brainchild of Captain Frederick Standish, one time VRC Chairman and former Chief Commissioner of Police in Victoria. As a former member of the Victoria Turf Club, he conceptually founded the great race with the club committed to offering modest prize-money and a hand-beaten gold watch. The conditions for the race would state "a sweepstakes of 20 sovereigns" (starters)", 10 sovereigns forfeit" (acceptance) "or 5 sovereigns if declared" (nominated)", with 200 sovereigns added money".Flemington Racetrack Archived 21 September 2011 at the Wayback Machine
